They still at half staff for Cheney?

Ain't gonna stop people from trying.Kinda hard to blame the guy for not order flags lowered to half staff when they are already there.
This is happening along with threatening to invade a different sovereign nation to go after “narco terrorist”.yet another thing that would be the biggest scandal of a presidency if it was not a president who does it daily.
Pardoning narcotraffickers. Awesome.
Valid point; however, we all know if charlie would’ve died during Cheney “Half staff” tRump would’ve signed executive order saying “no more Dick, this is for charlie now!”Kinda hard to blame the guy for not order flags lowered to half staff when they are already there.

I am a pessimist. Always have been. We can be up 28 w 10 minutes to play and I’m counting possessions to see how we can still lose. Call it the Chris Rockins Effect.And nobody says a thing. The congress, the courts, and the citizens have abdicated our responsibility to stop this. If we as a nation responded with outrage like we should, he would be forced to stop. Instead, it is in a few papers, this attorney, and nothing else.
Trump said on Truth Social that Hernández has been treated “very harshly and unfairly.”
WTF does that even mean? Our federal prisons are too harsh for narcoterrorists? How does the press and the people let him do this crap? He is sending people to El Salvador and complaining about our prisons being too harsh and we do nothing?
@milehighpoke has been making statements here that I'll be honest I thought were a little over the top when he made them. But, I was wrong. This admistration is a clear and present danger to the existence of our nation as a democratic republic.
How about we put him on a Venezuelan boat in the Caribbean and deal with him accordingly? Apparently this administration does not consider that harsh treatment of narco-terrorists.![]()
The Ex-President Whom Trump Plans to Pardon Flooded America With Cocaine
Juan Orlando Hernández, whom Mr. Trump called a victim of persecution, helped orchestrate a decades-long trafficking conspiracy. It ravaged his Central American country.www.nytimes.com
He once boasted that he would “stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses.” He accepted a $1 million bribe from El Chapo to allow cocaine shipments to pass through Honduras. A man was killed in prison to protect him.
At the federal trial of Juan Orlando Hernández in New York, testimony and evidence showed how the former president maintained Honduras as a bastion of the global drug trade. He orchestrated a vast trafficking conspiracy that prosecutors said raked in millions for cartels while keeping Honduras one of Central America’s poorest, most violent and most corrupt countries.
Last year, Mr. Hernández was convicted on drug trafficking and weapons charges and sentenced to 45 years in prison. It was one of the most sweeping drug-trafficking cases to come before a U.S. court since the trial of the Panamanian strongman Gen. Manuel Noriega three decades before.
But on Friday, President Trump announced that he would pardon Mr. Hernandez, 57, who he said was a victim of political persecution, though Mr. Trump offered no evidence to support that claim. It would be a head-spinning resolution to a case that for prosecutors was a pinnacle, striking at the heart of a narcostate.
Trump's abject hypocrisy stinks to high heaven. And then Sen. Mullin compounds it:![]()
